The only ones of those movies I saw were Almost Famous, and The Outsiders: The Complete Novel. I loved the 22 minutes of additional footage in The Outsiders, as well as all the bonus features, but I absolutely hated the soundtrack. Most of it I didn't think fit with the movie, especially the weird surfer music that they kept playing.

So I agree with you, it was only a 3 star movie. The original Outsiders was a 4 star movie in my view, and this one would have been too if not for the horrible soundtrack. Almost Famous was awesome I thought. If you haven't already seen it, I think you'll enjoy it!!

That was a good idea to list the movies you have in your queque, instead of just listing the last movies you saw. I think I'll change the title of this thread to that, and hopefully it'll get more responses. Thanks for the idea Number 9 Dream!!

Yeah, you're right--the soundtrack didn't fit in with the movie at all! I kinda thought there was something off about it. I thought the movie was good, but it was a little redundant and cheesy at times (hence why I didn't give it a better rating). I should get the original version perhaps

Cool, I'm glad you liked Almost Famous!

It sounds like a movie I'll enjoy a lot

Thanks, Brad!
